Cleaning the Components

Use care when touching or cleaning the components such as the DVD player or the discs.

Do not use DVD lens cleaners for DVD players because the lens of the DVD optics can become contaminated by lubricants.

Handle CDs and DVDs carefully. Store them in their original cases or other protective cases and away from direct sunlight and dust. The DVD player scans the bottom surface of the disc. If the surface of a CD or DVD is damaged, such as cracked, broken, or scratched, the CD or DVD may not play properly or not at all. If the surface of a CD or DVD is soiled, take a soft, lint free cloth or dampen a clean, soft cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution mixed with water, and clean it. Make sure the wiping process starts from the center to the edge.

Do not touch the bottom side of a CD or DVD while handling it; this could damage the surface. Pick up CDs or DVDs by grasping the outer edges or the edge of the hole and the outer edge.
